65 miles will put you way too far north. More like 15 to 20 miles.

#2.  Is in Welch WV.  That is in the Southern part of the State.  You would
need to go to Roanoke and into Bluefield, WV and take Route 52 up to Welch.
This area is great for both Virginian and the N&W roads.  The Virginian at
Princeton and the N&W at Bluefield and Welch.  Don [Mills] in WV

The picture in Welch is the A with Welch Linkous Park pool in the
forground.  Everything is still there accept the A.
